Rio Ferdinand has proved to be a welcome addition to the BBC’s match-day panel throughout the World Cup, but his decision making in the fashion stakes left much to be desired.

The ex-Manchester United defender donned a double-breasted blazer with a bright orange tie for the showpiece final between Germany and Argentina, resembling a member of one of easyJet’s cabin crew, according to many on Twitter.

To be fair, it’s probably a long time since Rio flew with a budget airline, so we can probably give him the benefit of the doubt on this one.
